Recommendation 26

Data and analysis must improve. The NHS should collect data on where there are delays in the system, where women are being referred from, which could highlight areas where community provision is lacking, which groups of women are most affected by delays, to allow better understanding of health inequalities, how many women are waiting for more than one type of treatment, and the satisfaction and outcomes of follow-ups, including which women and girls access this pathway.
